SO Annoying
I have just tried to set up a shop on Etsy with my Noodles name and also one other potential name and there is a bug in the system which doesn't send a confirmation email and so means you can't verify and complete registration. This is totally and unbelievably annoying, especially as now I can't use either of the names I 'half' registered with because I have already entered them into the system, so apparently the accounts exist but I can't use them! AAAAAHHHHHh.
I had finally got my act together to set up a shop too. Now I am at a total loss and I don't know what I am going to do. I will let you know if I ever hear from technical support or from the forum, where this has happened to lots of other people.
Just not my day. Something is trying to stop me from making any kind of money! Boo hoo!

An etsy shop! Yee haa - congratulations! I know technically it's not set up (boo to bugs) but you'll sort that out I'm sure. Well done you - can't wait to see it.

Thanks for the vote of confidence Ali! I really hope it gets sorted but to be honest other people still don't seem to have got it sorted so I'm not too hopeful.
On a slightly more positive note, I already have an Etsy account but it as under another name and I was hoping to have a proper shop name, so if all else fails I can always use this one!

good luck with the etsy - I hope it is big success so that it can help with funding some printing workshops/classes.

Oh I hate it when technology doesn't work and I don't have the knowledge to fix it. It's so frustrating isn't it. I'm sure you will get it sorted out eventually, I do hope so anyway, I would love to see the little things you make :-)
